sdy will play for NAVI at IEM Cologne 2022
The Ukrainian esports organization NaVi has approved the roster for the upcoming IEM Cologne 2022. As a result, sdy will remain in the starting team for the next championship, as the Ukrainian showed a decent game in his first tournament in the Born to Win camp.
The NAVI esports club has approved the CS:GO roster for the upcoming IEM XVII — Cologne. The Born to Win will again be represented by Ukrainian Viktor "sdy" Orudzhev, with whom the team became the champion of BLAST Premier: Spring Finals 2022, having beaten Team Vitality in the final with a score of 2:0.
It is worth noting that sdy, playing in non-standard positions, finished the tournament with a rating of 1.02 and was remembered for many beautiful highlights in important rounds.
As before, sdy will play for NAVI on a free loan from the MAD Lions club. We thank the leadership of the Spanish club and the Prodigy agency for the opportunity.
Recall that sdy joined NAVI two weeks ago. Together with the team, the 25-year-old Ukrainian esportsman became the winner of BLAST Premier: Spring Finals 2022.
IEM Cologne 2022 will be held from 5 to 17 July in Germany at the Lanxess-Arena. The championship will feature 24 teams from Europe, the CIS, Oceania, China, North and South America, who will play for a prize pool of $1,000,000, as well as rating points for the BLAST Premier table.
NAVI is the current winner of the championship - last year, the "Born to Win" outplayed G2 Esports in the grand final with a score of 3:0. The upcoming championship for the yellow-blacks will start from the group stage.
The NAVI roster at IEM Cologne 2022 is as follows:
- s1mple.
